In the quiet of a room
When there’s nothing left to do
Will you hold me babe
Save me

People disappear from view
See the sunrise on the roof
I already hate today
It’s so lonely

Get up 
I know we just made it home
I’m not surprised that I’m not sober
Being alive is just getting old
I’m not surprised that I’m not sober

Thought I’d give away my youth
To something better used
And I need it babe
It’s just part of the day

I don’t know 
never talked much
Sometimes feelings not enough
There’s a deeper pain
It’s empty

Get up 
I know we just made it home
I’m not surprised that I’m not sober
Being alive is just getting old
I’m not surprised that I’m not sober

So get up I know we just made it home
I’m not surprised that I’m not sober
Being alive is just getting old
I’m not surprised that I’m not sober

A Place You Grew Up In

So everyday I roam, but can never seem to hitch a ride

If only I had known
I'd be running through the rocks
To get a little closer
I'd be sitting on the dock
Well I want you to be home
Where we can kick it we can toss

It hits a little different now
Since you've opened up your eyes
Yeah I was slow, I should've known
That's how it goes it's dark but I
Want it to be known
I want you to be my light

Yeah I want it to be known
That I want you to be home but
Yeah I was slow, I should've known
That's how it goes
Sometimes in life you can't
Get what you like

Found the fools gold
Yeah I saw it spark
I needed light, I was in the dark
No amount of money
Would keep my eyes from it
Then I grew old
Yeah I grew apart
From my perfect sight
Saw black and white
I was a shark with no love
Or no colour in my life
No colour in my life

So every day I roam
But can never seem to hitch a ride
Guess I'm alone, all on my own
So it's whatever if I just
Want to be home
Just want you to be beside

Yeah I want it to be known
That I want you to be home but
Yeah I was slow, I should've known
That's how it goes
Sometimes in life you can't
Get what you like, no
Sometimes in life you can't
Get what you like, no

Something New

Co-Written by Nic Gracia and Rob Marshall
Produced, Mixed and Mastered by The Canvas Group

New State of Mind

When It's Time

This first collab of many more to come is an alluring journey into the depths of longing for fonder memories. 

We wanted to capture that oddly captivating sensation of replaying those perfect memories, so often poisoned by the idea that you might never experience them the same way again. 

Playfully cosy instrumentation drives towards an energetic acceptance of those forlorn desires, with lyrics that dissect the alluring lie that the grass is always greener on the other side. 

Floating melodies seamlessly solidify into a sonic metaphor of always wanting more, always searching for a stronger feeling. 

A deeper blue. Something 'Other Than Orange'.

Getaway (single)

Getaway - Sir Archer

Waiting

Setting Sun

Just a music producer artist guy who loves steamed vegetables and is mostly blind in one eye. Here's my story.

In the 2020 clusterduck-shmitstorm, I quit my corporate job and moved from the Toronto area to Vancouver Island with my wife and two cats where I'd write and record the first Calm Canopy singles (, , , ) in a makeshift bedroom studio, which were all released over the span of a few months.

2021: the new songs made their way into new ears via various Spotify editorial playlists such as Indie All Stars, Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds: Rock, Fresh Finds: Indie, Fresh Finds: Pop, RADAR Canada, New Music Friday Canada, undercurrents, and Ready to Rock. I was floored. I felt like dancing; I did. I enjoyed a square of the darkest chocolate I could find. Then I got back to work.

Today, I continue to produce my indie rock/pop anthems of inner discovery from my home studio in a small town located West of Toronto. 🇨🇦 Thank you for lending me your ears.
